Famous Pizza recently changed ownership, and is now called Westwood Pizza. What did not change, apparently, were the ovens and the recipes. This is simply the best pizza I have ever had in my life. I've been living in New York for 3 years, and supposedly eating the "best pizza on the planet". It does not measure up to Famous/Westwood Pizza. The large plain pie has just the right amount of cheese, which is lightly salted and perfectly melted (brown in spots, but not burnt). The sauce is good, but not overstated. The crust: delectable. Maybe the best part. Add in some reasonably priced soft drinks, a garlic knot or two, and a friendly smile from the loyal staff, and you've got a great pizza dinner.

Westwood pizza has awesome food. The pizza there is phenomanal for an awesome price. You can get 2 huge slices of cheese pizza and a soda for only 4 bucks. Highly reccomended for pizza lovers

Westwood Famous Pizza is a small local pizza/sub joint that is well frequented by local patrons. The pizzas are all very good, with thin, crispy crust and fresh toppings. The sandwiches vary from great to so-so depending on topping and kind (hot/cold). The steak subs are good if a little greasy. The greek salad and specialities are unique and delicious.
